http://ninemsn.video.msn.com/v/en-au/v.htm?g=595e69df-0e5d-46f3-8b26-cd01176f88fd&f=auifilm&fg=rss


I dno if that link will work or last long but it's a Mickey Mouse copy on Palestinian TV (I think) promoting hate and violence towards the west
Wasn't sure where to put this.

Well this is a very good piece of propoganda. Built around at targeting younger population of the arabs in Palestine.
I am not sure how real are the phone calls (they could be staged) because they really fit in nicely.
But if you look into it what the propoganda messages is saying is fight:
murderers --> fight for your life
opressors --> fight for your rights
subjugators --> fight for your freedom

Life, Liberty and Justice! is what they should fight for.

It puts exactly the face on those who you have to fight:
Bush
Condoleeza Rice
Sharon --> assumed dead already (well he is a vegetable)
etc

And than finally that you should take up arms and fight, for reasons already mentioned.

The fact that it targets children is ofcourse allarming but since they consider themselves to be at war than I can see where this idea is coming from.
During Vietnam War, World War II, China-Japanese conflicts and others children did participate in the conflicts as memebers of resistance cells, and even with regular units (I don't mean the child soldiers that you find in Africa that are forced to fight).

child soldiers are not a new thing. many of the drug running gangs in rio de janero use child soldiers because they haven't developed a moral conscience yet. because of this, they think that shooting someone in the leg is ok.

if anyone has seen "the city of god" then they will know what i am talking about.

as colonel here says, child soldiers in africa are a huge problem, as like their brazilian counterparts, they don't know its wrong to shoot someone. but with child soldiers, they are forced to fight, either by their parents, or by the people who have shot their parents.

propaganda happens, we can't change it. we can be appalled by it, but we can't change it, because the people putting it out want the message to get across.

using mickey mouse is just another way of getting across to a younger generation, like Tintin (blond hair, blue eyes, fighting in the soviet union, france and cario?).

Hmm ....

The whole concept would suggest that you can use the Mickey Mouse icon to suite your needs for any agenda directed at children. In that case maybe we could make a Mickey Mouse video or t.v. show that promotes "How to be a Ninja" themes. Could you guys imagine that? That shrill little voice behind a mask and samurai sword? Maybe his name could be "Mickey Mickinjanouse".

After seeing these videos on TV I vowed never to see them again. It's just brainwashing, nothing more, nothing less.
